Hi. I just wanted to share my experience about updating bios in z170 deluxe. any bios version higher than 2202 will cause the nvram to disappear. eg nvidia web driver needs nvram to load, therefore it wont work any more. also for some mysterious reason even the audio driver applehda wont work any more. if you already have done this the only way to solve this is to downgrade bios with flashback. put the old version bios on a usb memory stick rename it to z170d and plug it to the usb port with an IC mark under it, press the flashback button and wait till it finishes.
